Art in the Park

This fun event takes place every February. This year it took place on Sunday 11th 2018 from 11 am.It was very windy this year but that did not stop the tremendous turnout.

We were met at the entrance by this gorgeously friendly pony tethered in the lush, long grass.

From homemade spices on sale at a  great stall to…

… to local artists, who work in all mediums, came out and to show/sell the beautiful wares they have been diligently working on.

You will find paintings, wood carvings, jewelry, clothing stalls, there were also these cutesy dolls.

Churning ice cream the old fashioned way makes for a delicious treat.

During the course of the day there were performances by local musicians. This couple made incredible music, she on the drum and he using an array of unusual instruments.

Art in the Park is held in the grounds of the Emilio Wilson Park. The park is on the left just after Emilio’s/Rainforest Adventure as you drive from Bush Road towards St. Peter’s.

Art work and cookies are a great combination. These ladies brought smiles to all who stopped by this stall.

Our favourite stall was the one selling the most amazing Johnny cakes, formed and fried on the spot and filled with a slice of Gouda cheese – as local as you can get.
